Safari 12

[romanmorozov81]

New version 12 of Safari now supports only extensions from Safari Gallery. Any chance to push this very helpful extension to Safari Gallery? Or is it possible to it in Tampermonkey?

Yeah, I’ll look at doing this over the weekend. Thanks for being patient!

I've submitted the extension as-is to the Safari Extension Gallery, we'll just have to wait and see if they'll accept it. I've heard anecdotal suggestions that they reject extensions that provide "insufficient" functionality.

Thank you anyway!

Beware that the gallery is also deprecated per 2019, and new submissions must go through the App Store. Anyway thanks a lot for your effort and prior use of this plugin!

Hi, did Apple accepted it?

@Bouke thanks, I was reminded of that when I was checking the documentation. My plan is to get this into the Extension Gallery now, and move it to the App Store before the end of the year.

@romanmorozov81 I've submitted it twice and have been knocked back twice, both essentially due to my own incompetence: once for missing an icon, and the second time because it apparently doesn't work. I suspect the reviewer tested it on the New Tab page, which is listed as something that is known to not work in the repo's readme, but I mustn't have included it in the blurb on the submission.

@richjddavis Hello Rich, can we expect further attempts to get it into the Gallery, or is this over, please? Thank you

[richjddavis]

It's not over yet, though my personal machine's decided it no longer wants to boot into macOS. I definitely haven't given up, just managing priorities is a bit tricky at this time of the year. Sorry that it's taking so long.

I've managed to run your script in Tampermonkey. Just download it from Safari Gallery and import this file to Tampermonkey. tampermonkey_scripts.txt

[romanmorozov81]

It works in all tabs except blank tab. Any ideas how to run it in blank tab?

[romanmorozov81]

Code inside Tampermonkey script

// ==UserScript==
// @name         Full Screen NoEscape
// @namespace    https://github.com/richjddavis/safari-fullscreen-noescape
// @version      1.0.0
// @description  A small Safari extension to disable the default behaviour of Safari exiting OS X Full Screen Mode when the Escape key is pressed.
// @author       Rich Davis
// @include      *
// @grant        none
// ==/UserScript==

(function(window) {
    'use strict';
    const KEYCODE_ESCAPE = 27;

    window.addEventListener('keypress', function suppressEscape(event) {
    if (event.keyCode === KEYCODE_ESCAPE) {
        event.preventDefault();
    }
});
})(window);

Just in case someone need it, or want to make corrections. Sorry I'm not a coder.

EDIT (@richjddavis): I just cleaned it up a little

[richjddavis]

@romanmorozov81 I can't really endorse Tampermonkey, but your snippet should do the job.

I suspect it doesn't work on a blank/new tab for the same reason this extension also never worked in those contexts: Safari doesn't load extensions (at least not legacy extensions, not sure about app extensions) on those "pages".

I was so excited when I found this plugin because I hate this Safari functionality. Did you find a way to get it to run on the latest Safari?
